Android on Vodafone

Anyone know anything about any new handsets that are being released on Vodafone.. Would rather stick with Voda due to reception probs with O2 where i am..

Like the look of the i7500 and also the Sony x3 but cant find any info if they're being released on Voda or what is in the near future!!

Anyone else know anything?!

There is a HTC soon to be released, exclusive to Voda... cant remember name off hand was announced yesterday. Supposed to be a bit smaller than the Hero but still with all the SenseUI funky.

I liked the look of HTC Tattoo until it was mentioned that it had a resistive touch screen (as opposed to capacitive)

I've been looking at vodaphone too, the reception in my flat sucks and i want to get one of their gateway / femtocell deivces.

Seems to be a few mobile shops that do the HTC Hero on vodaphone, bit odd as it's not listed on vodaphone's site but might be worth having a look at. Looks like the only android option for a while, that Tattoo one is a no go for me with the reduced screen rez.

I have a hero on Vodafone. I got it from mobiles.co.UK. its a generic phone with no branding from the network. Officially not supported by Vodafone but I've never had any trouble with it.

Hi Guys

It's great to see so many wanting to be with us!

The Hero isn't sold by Vodafone directly, but you can get it through third party dealers like the one mentioned.

To see all the phoens we have confirmed as coming to Vodafone in the coming months have a look at our Coming Soon page.

To always be in the know about the latest phones make sure you register for updates!

Have a great night!

Me too, although it was the display resolution that bothered me the most - 240x320, which is the same as my current Samsung Soul, and the K800 I had before that (nearly 3 years ago). Bit of a shame, but I'll give it a look nonetheless.
